The Lavender of Sequim, a new book by author Bonnie Louise Gillis with photography by Roger Mosley, will calm you, teach you, and take your breath away. Between the white-capped Olympic Mountains and the blue Salish Sea lies a land of lavender fields, with over 150 varieties of the herb to be sniffed, gathered, and even tasted. Long known as the Lavender Capital of North America®, Sequim remains the one place in our country where you can experience a dozen unique lavender farms in a day.
